Scott was wonderful. We were new to the breed and he was always available for any questions and really was more of a mentor to us than simply a transaction.

Scott Thomas and Velocitas Greyhounds provided the best experience I could imagine when trying to find a greyhound. I'm writing this a month after picking up my puppy and Scott has checked in multiple times with me and answered numerous questions I've had. He was very responsive and trustworthy before picking up our puppy. I can't imagine you'll find a better more knowledgeable person to get a greyhound from. Thanks again Scott!
Health testing is one key piece of responsible breeding and is performed on breeding dogs to prevent the presence of heritable conditions in their puppies.
